How to Design Perfect Holiday Floral Arrangements

1. Use In-Season Flowers

A great place to start when planning a holiday floral arrangement is to think about what kinds of flowers are in season at this time of year. Keep your flowers traditional by using lots of classic poinsettias. Embrace the red and white holiday color scheme with a bouquet of candy cane roses or candy cane Peruvian lilies. Christmas tulips and calla lilies are also lovely choices for the end of the year. Add some fresh and green leather fern leaves to help the vibrant reds and whites stand out.

2. Think About Your Color Palette

However, this is not your only option when choosing flowers to pair with your holiday décor. If you don’t want to stray too far from the classic, try opting for a single-color bouquet with only white or red flowers. If you choose red, you can also add a few dark pink blossoms for a unique take on the traditional bouquet. You can also consider adding a few orange flowers in your red bouquet for additional dimension. 

3. Include Non-Floral Pieces

After you’ve chosen the flowers for your holiday floral arrangement, you can start adding other elements to your centerpiece. Add some red or white tapered candles or choose a set of pillar candles in varying sizes. Instead of a table runner, put out some evergreen or pine branches along the length of the table and garnish it with seasonal fruit or pinecones. You can even get creative with your décor items and incorporate candy cane pieces or fresh cranberries.
